You know I feel your pain; our summer weekends have been especially hit or miss. I know others are facing extreme heat waves while you and I mildew but after my ~ 9 months of overcast skies that after-work al fresco drink etc does seem deserved.

I try to tell myself the crappy days make the gorgeous ones that much better -- and sometimes that works. You're normally the optimist, not me...guess those raindrops are taking a toll! [And hey: at least you had the curry to console you.]

Tabitha, you know I keep thinking of you every single day. You understand we wonder why we even make the effort to fly to a country where it rains when we can have the wet experience at our doorstep. We reached the point where my parent's basement turns into a lake and needs some kärcher-vacuuming. Of course we have no doubt there will be lots of sun by the time we arrive in Edinburgh.

Vix, yesterday we actually had a nice evening, including aperitivo and snacks. But it seems I am not used to the Campari, white wine etc at all anymore. So I am not so unhappy there won't be an aperitivo tonight, due to heavy rain. My head will thank me. In case you wonder: those campari drinks just won't do it in the living-room!
